Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the factorial structure of the personality questionnaire "Eysenck" on an Algerian sample. The sample of the study consisted of (669) students from four different universities in Algeria (Blida 02, Batna, Msila, and Setif 02). Statistical analysis of the findings showed that "Eysenck "was loaded on four factors. The amount of these factors fit with the number of factors that "Eysenck" assumes that the structure of the questionnaire is loaded on in any cultural environment. Findings showed that the items of the questionnaire were loaded on four factors: lying, extroversion, neuroticism, psychoticism, with the existence of other items that were loaded on different factors.
